make supreme test of their ability to
deal with public affairs and in order to

simply watch the result of the trial. The
entire city ticket-Mayor, CouncilmeD,
etc-is composed of ladies, who were
unanimously nominated to the position
Stockston is on the south folk of Solomon
River, and has lately voted to build
watervorks. The handling of this i'm

watch with eager interest the result of an
Iexperiment that is without parallel in
the history of modern times.

Mr.. Parnell is said to be hopeful.
The Tories are meeting new dffcul-
ties in their plan of coercion. Their
Land bill is discredited. The Eng

nouncing coercion. A great many
meetings will be held all over the
country. Mr.. Thomas Power O'Con-

The Irish made the greatest attack
upon the Speaker ever recorded in

Recently the head of great Bor-
deaux wine house called on Prince
Bismarck, who for years has pur~
chased most of his wines from that
house. fhe man of blood and iron
gave an order for a large consign-

man discreetly fished for an opinion
as to the probability of war. Tut,
